So what is the BEST way to raise the rear end on my ranger? I'm putting on the spindles next weekend. 4 wheel parts said to do the add a leaf and my neighbor that has a suburban said that he tried them and they didn't work, but his suburban is like 12 in. in the air and has 38 in tires. I have a 2002 Ext. Cab Edge. Will the add a leaf level it out, or should i get some shackels, or both?

Thanks,
Chris Hill

 

2" shackles and AAL will make you perfect...

Should i get those beltech ones that everyone is talking about?

You may find cheaper elsewhere...

 

i have AAL for sale if you want. $50 shipped!

brand new from summit. Brand: Pro Comp

 

Here are the before pictures. Going to get the wheels installed tomm. and the lift on Sat.

 

Does anyone have a picture that shows the shackle kit installed? I'm a little confused on how it works. THANKS

 

go under your truck... look at the leaf spring. in the back you will see a shackle on there now holding the leaf to the frame hanger. its just a longer version..

 

Alright thanks i've been woundering about that all weekend. I saw what your talking about and was just woundering if you added it to that or what. So now i know.

Thanks

 

yepper. and the AAL goes in the spring pack...

 

Do i need to jack up the truck and suport the frama and undo the u-bolts on the truck to install the new shackles or just support the frame and undo the shackles and replace them?
